Born 300 years ago in London, William Hogarth established himself as a central figure in 18th-century English culture through his paintings, engravings, and outspoken art criticism. In the development of English aesthetics, his ANALYSIS OF BEAUTY takes the significant position of recognizing the value of a middle range for appeal to the everyday world of human choice and contingency. 24 illustrations .
